The Wild Boar Estate
Private woodland trails, a smokehouse, and dogs in the lounge bar
This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.
What we've verified
The estate's own woodland trails start at the door, and School Knott above Windermere with its tarn is about three miles west for a short fell with lake views.
Dogs can't be booked into the luxury rooms, and they eat with you in the bar and lounge.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
GBP 30, Per dog per night, GBP 35 per dog per night on festive packages
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
The property.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs stay in the standard and feature rooms, not the luxury category. They are welcome in the bar and lounge areas, where you can eat with them, but not in the Grill and Smokehouse. The estate's private woodland trails are open to them. Dogs must not be left unattended.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
